The chemo- and enantioselectivity of the reaction of alkenes with AlEt3 catalyzed by bis(1-neomenthylindenyl)zirconium dichloride has been studied. The reaction with linear alkenes in a chlorinated solvent (CH2Cl2) gives m

The paper is devoted to a study of the reaction of terminal alkene cycloalumination by AlEt3 catalyzed with neomenthylindenyl zirconium complexes (p-S)(p-S)-bis[η5-[1-[(1S,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5- methylcycloh-exyl]indenyl]]zirconium dichloride (1) or (p-S)-(η5- cyclopentadienyl)[η5-[1-[(1S,2S,5R)-2-isopropyl-5- methylcyclohexyl]indenyl]]zirconium dichloride (2). It was shown that alkene and catalyst structures, as well as solvent, affect the overall yield and enantiomeric excess of the reaction product - 3-alkylsubstituted aluminacyclopentanes. The reaction of terminal alkenes with AlEt3, catalyzed by complex 1, in hydrocarbon solvents gives predominantly S-enantiomers of cyclic organoaluminum compounds with enantiomeric excess up to 37%. Complex 2 shows smaller stereoinduction effect and provides R-enantiomers of aluminacyclopentanes with 6-26%ee. The effectiveness of selenium-containing derivatizing reagent (R)-2-phenylselenopropanoic acid for the enantiomeric excess estimation in β-alkyl-1,4-butanediols obtained from cyclic organoaluminum compounds was shown.
Widely applicable synthesis of enantiomerically pure tertiary alkyl-containing 1-alkanols by zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric carboalumination of alkenes and palladium- or copper-catalyzed cross-coupling

A highly enantioselective and widely applicable method for the synthesis of various chiral 2-alkyl-1-alkanols, especially those of feeble chirality, has been developed. It consists of zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric carboalumination of alkenes (ZACA), lipase-catalyzed acetylation, and palladium- or copper-catalyzed cross-coupling. By virtue of the high selectivity factor (E) associated with iodine, either (S)- or (R)-enantiomer of 3-iodo-2-alkyl-1- alkanols (1), prepared by ZACA reaction of allyl alcohol, can be readily purified to the level of ≥99 % ee by lipase-catalyzed acetylation. A variety of chiral tertiary alkyl-containing alcohols, including those that have been otherwise difficult to prepare, can now be synthesized in high enantiomeric purity by Pd- or Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling of (S)-1 or (R)-2 for introduction of various primary, secondary, and tertiary carbon groups with retention of all carbon skeletal features. These chiral tertiary alkyl-containing alcohols can be further converted into the corresponding acids with full retention of the stereochemistry. The synthetic utility of this method has been demonstrated in the highly enantioselective (≥99 % ee) and efficient syntheses of (R)-2-methyl-1-butanol and (R)- and (S)-arundic acids. Look, mom, one hand! 2-Alkyl-1-alkanols of feeble chirality have been synthesized by a sequence of zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric carboalumination of alkenes (ZACA), lipase-catalyzed acetylation, and Pd- or Cu-catalyzed cross-coupling in high enantiomeric purity of ≥99 % ee. The synthetic utility of this method has been demonstrated in highly enantioselective and efficient syntheses of (R)-2-methyl-1-butanol, (R)- and (S)-arundic acids. Copyright
Syntheses and evaluation of anticonvulsant activity of novel branched alkyl carbamates

A novel class of 19 carbamates was synthesized, and their anticonvulsant activity was comparatively evaluated in the rat maximal electroshock (MES) and subcutaneous metrazol (scMet) seizure tests and pilocarpine-induced status epilepticus (SE) model. In spite of the alkyl-carbamates' close structural features, only compounds 34, 38, and 40 were active at the MES test. The analogues 2-ethyl-3-methyl-butyl-carbamate (34) and 2-ethyl-3-methyl-pentyl- carbamate (38) also exhibited potent activity in the pilocarpine-SE model 30 min postseizure onset. Extending the aliphatic side chains of homologous carbamates from 7 to 8 (34 to 35) and from 8 to 9 carbons in the homologues 38 and 43 decreased the activity in the pilocarpine-SE model from ED50 = 81 mg/kg (34) to 94 mg/kg (35) and from 96 mg/kg (38) to 114 mg/kg (43), respectively. The most potent carbamate, phenyl-ethyl-carbamate (47) (MES ED50 = 16 mg/kg) contains an aromatic moiety in its structure. Compounds 34, 38, 40, and 47 offer the optimal efficacy-safety profile and, consequently, are promising candidates for development as new antiepileptics.
Alkane Functionalization on a Preparative Scale by Mercury-Photosensitized Cross-Dehydrodimerization

Alkanes can be functionalized with high conversions and in high chemical and quantum yields on a multigram scale by mercury-photosensitized reaction between an alkane and alcohols, ethers, or silanes to give homodimers and cross-dehydrodimers.The separation of the product mixtures is often particulary easy because of a great difference in polarity of the homodimers and cross-dimers.It is also possible to bias the product composition when the ratio of the components in the vapor phase is adjusted by altering the liquid composition.This is useful either to maximize chemical yield or to ease separation by favoring the formation of the most easily separated pair of compounds.The mechanistic basis of the reaction is discussed and a number of specific types of syntheses, for example of 2,2-disubstituted carbinols, are described in detail.The selectivity of cross-dimerization is shown to exceed that for homodimerization and reasons are discussed.Relative reactivities of different compounds and classes of compound are MeOHp-dioxanecyclohexane1,3,5-trioxacyclohexaneethanolisobutaneTHFEt3SiH.The observed selectivities generally parallel those for homodimerization, reported in the preceding paper, but certain differences are noted, and reasons for the differences are proposed.The bond-dissociation energy of Et3SiH is estimated from the reactivity data to be 90 kcal/mol.Eleven new carbinols are synthesized.
